A familiar moment

The moving-day clean arrives while the machines are running

You are working through a kitchen clean when a tenant rings about an empty flat before handover. Ziverly can capture the property size, rooms and appliances involved, current condition in the caller's own words, access, hoped-for date and whether there are pets or known specialist hazards. It does not confirm availability, price or that ordinary deep cleaning is suitable for contamination or dangerous materials.

The useful handover

Enough context to respond properly.

The aim is to welcome the caller, gather the details you decide matter and keep the same enquiry easy to follow until the work is resolved.

  • Who is calling and how to reach them.
  • What they need help with and where.
  • What should happen next, without inventing a response time.

Where the pressure tends to gather

Make space for the work without leaving the caller in the dark.

Think about the calls that interrupt you most often. Ziverly can follow the questions and boundaries you choose, then leave the details ready for your judgement.

Deep clean means different things to different callers

An end-of-tenancy reset, post-building dust and a heavily used kitchen can involve very different time, equipment and expectations.

Customers may feel uncomfortable describing the home

A calm first conversation helps people share useful facts without feeling judged or pushed to minimise the work.

Cleaning work is noisy and hands-on

Gloves, chemicals, wet surfaces and equipment make it difficult to answer a detailed enquiry properly.

What a better handover can change

Less interruption now, a clearer thread afterwards.

The reason for the clean is understood

Receive the property, priorities, condition, access and target date as one organised enquiry.

Specialist risks are not casually accepted

Use your approved wording for hazardous waste, bodily fluids, mould, needles or other work needing a separate assessment.

Open enquiries are harder to forget

Keep the call at the right status and include it in configured daily or weekly open-call email summaries until you have dealt with it.

Hope, The Encourager

For someone looking for deep cleaning, a warm acknowledgement can reassure them that their enquiry has been heard, even when you cannot answer immediately.

Before, during and after the call

From first ring to finished follow-up.

Ziverly can do more than take a message. You stay in control of when it answers, how you hear about each call and what context is available if the customer rings again.

  1. You decide which calls reach Ziverly.

    Use the call-diversion options supported by your mobile or landline service, such as no reply, unreachable, busy or rejected. Turn them off again whenever you want to answer normally, or use cover for evenings, weekends, holidays and unexpected time away.

  2. Your call details meet you where you are.

    Choose email or SMS alerts where enabled, then open Ziverly to review the summary, transcript, recording where available, status and priority.

    See the property size, rooms, reason for cleaning, stated condition, access, pets or known hazards and preferred date in one place.

  3. The next conversation starts further forwards.

    Add an AI-facing note when you want Ziverly to have more context if the same known caller rings again. Separate private notes stay private.

    Add an approved assessment question, availability update or proposed next conversation so Ziverly can use it for that caller if they return.

  4. Open calls do not have to rely on memory.

    Choose a daily or weekly email summary of calls still waiting for attention, at the time that best fits your working day.

  5. You can check in by phone, too.

    With Owner Voice Access enabled, call your own Ziverly number, verify your PIN and manage the calls you are allowed to see.

    After verifying your PIN, hear which deep-cleaning enquiries remain open and update their status or priority once the equipment is packed away.

Use your own numbers

What might unanswered calls represent for your business?

If an average deep clean is worth around £180 to your business, even one suitable enquiry can be worth understanding properly. Replace that example with your own figures below.

The result is an illustration based only on what you enter. It is not a forecast, a promise that Ziverly will recover the work or a reason to accept an unsuitable job.

This simple multiplication does not account for timing, capacity, costs, cancellations, repeat work or whether another response would have changed the outcome.

Useful boundaries for call handling

Let Ziverly gather details without overstepping your expertise.

No trade-specific statutory licence; COSHH, safe work at height, electrical safety and waste duties apply according to methods and products used.

You remain responsible for the advice you give, the work you accept and the safety, eligibility and professional checks your business requires.

A few practical questions

What would you want to know before starting?

Use these answers to decide where Ziverly could help and where the conversation should always return to you.

Can Ziverly confirm how long a deep clean will take?

No. It can gather the property and condition described, while you decide whether a visit, photographs or further questions are needed.

Will it accept cleaning involving hazardous contamination?

No. Ziverly follows the boundaries you approve and leaves suitability, methods and specialist controls entirely with you.

Can it confirm a cleaning date?

It can record the customer's preferred date, but only you can confirm availability and accept the work.

Try the smallest useful version

Begin with the calls that interrupt your working day most often.

Choose what Ziverly should know, what it should never promise and which details make a follow-up genuinely useful. Creating an account is free, so you can look around before deciding when you want Ziverly to handle a call.

No monthly or annual plan is required and there is no fixed-term commitment. Add pay-as-you-go credit only when you are ready to use it.
